i am in india waiting for my work permit.It was taking far too long because it was company's first time applicaion. in the mean time i tried to visit uk on visitor's visa to meet my girlfriend who is british.It was refused both the times.
First time the reason was
.You were a student before in uk,you havent provided evidence of any qualifications recieved. so my intent to return is doubtable.(i was a student before and didnt realize these documents needed to be submitted for a visitor visa!).i stated that i am unemployed as i just finished my studies and am waiting for the work permit(showed offer letter from company)
Second time
.doubt on intent to return because of the amount of funds in your bank account raises doubt.I provided all the previous documents and also mentioned that i maintained the bank account as i am planning to go to uk on work permit.i also gave them the work permit applicaion reference number(i never overstayed or breached any immigration laws.have visited other countries as well).but still got refused.
Now,I am getting married march with my girlfriend.I know i can wait for some more months and apply for a husband visa.But i would like to have a job before marriage so will apply for entry clearance in the work permit sector. I really dont know what to write in the cover letter.it seems i have to think like a lawyer to convince the ec officer.
Should i mention about my upcoming marriage to a british citizen in my new applicaion.what if this applicaion gets rejected because of some reason i never thought about(im paranoid now).If it gets rejected and i apply for spouse visa later on.will further questions be asked. I can be completely honest with them and give them a breakdown of everything,but wanted to know if ec officers really do read through everything, as i dont want to mention that i am getting married and later getting refused because i have not provided any evidence for it(what evidence??.wedding cards?i got them).Do ec really want to look at paperwork for spouse visa in a work permit visa application?
Anybody pls show some light to this confused soul
